Baritone Ukulele Songbook: 100 All Time Classics

This Baritone Ukulele book is great value compared to similar music books, most of which are disappointing and overpriced! The author even includes useful tips, masses of extra chord diagrams and very useful instructions on Strumming methods too. Great value for money.

Some mistakes but not to worry if you know a bit about music

This book is OK. However, most of these are very much similar classic songs that most ukulele players will already have. What I call "She'll be coming round the mountain"-type songs. (Yes, that one IS in this book). There are some better songs in there, and I like the Tab diagrams beneath the stave which make it easy to pick out the tune - a handy way to ensure you sing in the right key and in tune is to pick out the first few notes before you start. The chord diagrams and strumming patterns etc will be a great help to many, I'm sure. Like most baritone uke players, I progressed to the baritone uke after first becoming competent with a soprano uke, but this book would be OK for someone who is starting with baritone as their first uke. I'd have liked more 'pop and country classics', the sort of thing that would go down better at open mic nights. But that said, a song list is given in the description of this book. The lack of many pop classics is why I'm not giving five stars.

Got chords and tab and plenty of songs. Good value for money.

Great little book. Easy to read, easy tablature. Gonna work may way through them.

Very poorly printed. Looks like there ink was running out on a £40 printer. Every other page bearly visible.Songs not to bad. Melody picking very basic.

Very USA orientated songs, but well set out, and a wide variety of tunes.

...it would be much better if the songs that are in this book as well as the book for the soprano/concert.tenor ukulele were in the same key.

Like I said, great book.

Très satisfaite.

Des titres de la culture populaire (folk) anglo-saxonne avec une tablature simple. Cela permet au grand débutant de tâtonner et, surprise, d'arriver à "jouer" de petits morceaux. Mieux vaut trouver quelques fichiers audio pour mieux connaître les différents titres. Certainement utile également à un niveau intermédiaire pour avoir une base et ornementer dessus. Permet de se vider la tête sainement en passant un bon moment avec son "bari uke" préféré. Le livre comprend quelques morceaux de noël utiles en fin d'année. Recommandé !

Easy to use with good songs

As a beginner baritone uke player, I found this book to be challenging and satisfying. Well organised songs written with chord symbols, chord diagrams, music notation, tab and lyrics. I can strum the chords or finger pick the notes. Between the music notation and words it is easy to figure out a new song. I liked it so much, I ordered the 70 Bluegrass Classics for Baritone Ukulele and hope it is just as good.
